24,778 Acres in Avondale, Colorado

Farm Description

A spectacularly sited expanse of shortgrass prairie located east of Pueblo, CO, the 26,018 acre 24,778 deeded, 989 leased BX Ranch is one of the great land conservation and regenerative agricultural success stories in the country. Over the past five years the current landowners have made significant capital improvements, installing state-of holistic short-rotation grazing infrastructure, including miles of new permanent electric interior paddock fencing and extensive waterlines servicing new stock tanks and ponds to set the stage for marked improvements in range production. The improvements allow for a much more productive and healthy grazing regimen which is leading to the robust return of native grasses and a diversity and density of herbaceous cover. Given the increased vegetation, the ranch is more drought tolerant and boasts more than double the per-acre carrying capacity of other area ranches. As a large, healthy, and productive expanse of native prairie grass land, the BX is an excellent long-term agricultural investment. Contact Woody Beardsley.
